Purpose

Use section rules in conjunction with harness rules to define the appearance of work object forms, rule forms, or composite portals. A section rule defines the appearance and contents of one horizontal portion of a form. Harness rules define complete forms that support all user interactions that create, update, and resolve work objects.

Process Commander contains dozens of standard harness and section rules. You can copy and tailor these standard forms to meet your application needs.

Where referenced

Rules of the following types can reference a section rule:

• Harness rules
• Other section rules
• List view and summary view rules, as the contents of a pop-up Smart Info window.
• Paragraph rules, as the contents of a pop-up Smart Info window.

Access

Use the User Interface slice () or Application Explorer to the access section rules that apply to the work types in your application. Use the Rules by Type Explorer to list all the section rules available to you.

Development

For section rules that use the SmartFrames format, you can maintain the section rule directly from the Harness rule form (as well as from the Section rule form).
